After Gao married the prince, the sick and weak concubine lost her horse

But Sun Zhijing regards these filth as nothing.

After Yu vomited, she realized her gaffe. She got up in a panic and was about to speak, but Sun Zhijing stopped her with a look.
"I come."

As soon as the words fell, the guide boy before bowed and asked Yu Shi to go out.

Yu didn't even dare to say a word, and didn't dare to stay in front of Sun Zhijing, so he left the room quickly.

After the two left, only Sun Zhijing and Sun Huai'an trembling on the bed were left in the huge room.

A gust of wind came in from the window, blowing the dimly lit lamps on the table beside the bed to flicker non-stop.

The dim oil lamp elongated his figure projected on the bed curtain, making him look like a ghost.

After being frightened, Sun Huai'an's throat seemed unstoppable, and it was even more strange in such a quiet environment where needles could be heard.

"Father afraid of me?"

Sun Zhijing sat down calmly on the chair opposite the bed.

He called "Father" on his lips, but his demeanor and tone showed no respect for Sun Huai'an.

Looking at it from Shen Qingci's point of view, half of his face was hidden in the shadows, and the remaining half of his face was wearing a faint smile, but that smile was also bitingly cold, which chilled people's hearts.

Sun Huai'an trembled even more.

Sun Zhijing smiled.

He turned his head and glanced at Sun Huai'an who was shaking like a sieve: "I told my father before that those who follow me will prosper and those who oppose me will perish."

"If my father refuses to eat obediently and cooperate, I can only find other brothers and sisters. Although Zhiyue is gone, I still have Zhiyan and Zhili."

"Oh, by the way, there is also a big sister Sun Zhiwei who is married far away in Chu State. There are so many people, it is enough for me to survive these days."

As soon as the words fell, Sun Huai'an's throat gurgled and muffled, and the next moment a mouthful of blood gushed out from the corner of his mouth.

He was so angry that he vomited blood.

Sun Zhijing turned his head away and stopped looking at him.

The moonlight outside the window was bright, and the cold moonlight covered half of his face through the window, making him look tall and handsome, as gentle as jade.

It's just that the gentleness is just an appearance.

At this time, the boy who sent Yu out came back.

He bowed and walked in front of Sun Zhijing, and said cautiously: "Master, in his condition, if he takes blood again, he may not be able to survive this time..."

Sun Zhijing smiled lightly: "It's okay."

Shen Qingci, who was hiding under the back window, was still thinking, what did Sun Zhijing mean by that?
What are they going to do with Sun Huai'an's blood?
Before Shen Qingci could think about it, she suddenly saw a scene that was enough to make her unforgettable for the rest of her life.

I saw Sun Zhijing suddenly touched his chin, and immediately raised his hand and tore off another face from his face!

The reason why it is said to be a face and not a mask is because as he tore it off, the face that was torn off by him was instantly dripping with blood.

That's a real...face.

Even his own face underneath was covered in blood.

But the boy was not surprised, he took the face that Sun Zhijing had torn off with both hands respectfully, put it in a copper basin filled with clean water, rinsed off the layer of blood on the surface of the mask, and held it The mask turned around and walked to Sun Huai'an's bed.

At this time, Sun Huai'an let out a frightened clucking sound, and his whole body was struggling to shrink into the bed.

But in his current state, he can't even climb up, so he is no match for a strong boy.

Soon the boy grabbed his wrist, and then cut his wrist with a dagger.

At the same time that blood flowed out from the cut on Sun Huai'an's wrist, the servant directly covered the mask that had been rinsed and shriveled.

With the gushing of blood, the mask seemed to come alive suddenly, and it stuck to Sun Huai'an's severed cut spontaneously.

After absorbing Sun Huai'an's blood, the shriveled mask gradually became fuller.

And the moment the mask was attached to Sun Huai'an's wrist, he suddenly let out a heart-piercing scream, as if he had endured extreme pain, but his tongue was twisted, but he couldn't utter a complete syllable.

Looking at this scene, only four words came to mind in Shen Qingci's mind - purgatory on earth.

Previously, Sheng Tingye had given her the mask at the bottom of Ting Lanya's box. The mask was made with many precious materials and took countless efforts. Moreover, it could only cover the general appearance. The face after wearing the mask was the same as the original one. His face is at least six or seven points similar.

But Sun Zhijing's method in front of him has completely changed his face.

And this method, Shen Qingci had heard from Sheng Tingye.

At that time, she wondered if Tinglan's mask could be improved, or if someone could make a more powerful one. Sheng Tingye said that the Dongyi people in Chu State had a "human face Gu" that could do it.

It's just that the whole process is extremely cruel.

That is to peel off the whole face of a person, and then nourish it with the Gu worms formed by that person's blood essence.

In order to ensure that the human skin mask can be peeled off smoothly without affecting the subsequent wearing, it must be peeled off while the person is still alive.

Moreover, every seven days, the blood of that person or a direct relative who has a blood relationship with that person must be used to feed the parasitic Gu worms on that mask, so as to ensure the "freshness" of the human skin mask.

That's not to mention, every time the Gu worm sucks blood is extremely painful... just like Sun Huai'an's current appearance.

Seeing this, there was something Shen Qingci didn't understand.

The person in front of him is not Sun Zhijing.

He clearly stripped Sun Zhijing's face and replaced Sun Zhijing's identity.

And Sun Zhijing, who had been skinned and eaten by Gu poison, would not live long. If he wanted to keep this human skin mask, he had to nourish it with the blood of his dearest relatives.

That's why Mrs. Yu said the words of persuasion to Sun Huai'an before——

"Zhiyue is gone!"

"If you refuse to cooperate obediently again, Zhili and Zhiyan will be the next one lying here."

"Master, you don't want to end your children and grandchildren, do you?"

If Sun Huai'an can't hold back the inhalation of human face Gu, the next one to be used as nourishment is Sun Zhiyan, Sun Zhili.

As an outsider, Shen Qingci felt chills all over his body when he saw this scene.

She couldn't bear to look at Sun Huai'an on the bed who was in pain until his facial features were distorted together, and turned to look at "Sun Zhijing" whose face was bloodstained, but the light was too dim and the blood on his face was too deep for Shen Qingci to see clearly.

At this time, the boy didn't look at Sun Huai'an at all, the wind was blowing under his feet, he quickly went to fetch a basin of clean water, wrung out the handkerchief and waited for "Sun Zhijing" to wash his face.

As the blood stains on his face were wiped dry, his true colors were gradually revealed.

The face is as white as jade, the eyes are like stars, the bridge of the nose is straight and straight, the thin lips are slightly raised, and there is a three-point cool smile by nature.

And the little cinnabar between his brows made his whole person a little more suave, elegant and gorgeous.

It was a face that Shen Qingci had never seen before.

But the moment he saw clearly, Shen Qingci had already thought of his identity.

It's just that this might be too ridiculous.

But this person's words and deeds, as well as that very characteristic cinnabar mole, made Shen Qingci have to think about it.

The female monarch of Chu State suddenly became seriously ill. Because she had no son or daughter, she adopted her nephew from the clan and became the heir apparent.

Even Sheng Tingye knew little about Chu, the crown prince who was appointed in danger.

But there is one thing that is impressive.

According to the rumors, the prince of Chu State was very handsome, especially the little cinnabar between the eyebrows, which looked like the painting of the creator.
